Day 13

Measurements/Metrics

Weight - 279.4 (finally budged!!)

Exercise - Sweat 1-2

I did this exercise while Maddie was taking a bath.  I did the first set of each round at super fast speed, followed by a normal set.  It didn't take as long, since I only did the same number of reps, but I was just as winded afterwards.  I pushed it to the max on the first set, doing everything as fast as I physically could.  No crunches today, either.  I'll pay for that on Tuesday of next week.

Diet

Breakfast - Cereal w/ skim milk
Snack - 2 granola cookies
Lunch - 4 pieces of pizza (probably 3 regular ones); side salad
Snack - 2 granola cookies
Dinner - 2 small tortillas with beef, guacamole, sour cream, lettuce, tomato, and cheese; 1/4 cup rice; salad

Feelings

Well, over the weekend, things don't look so good for me since we always have a meal with my in-laws on Saturday and my parents on Sunday.  These are the only cheat meals I am starting to allow, but I don't know how good it is putting them together.  I've heard that a 3 low-calorie day and 2 high-calorie day cycle is good to follow, so maybe a 5/2 cycle is okay, too?  We'll see how it goes at the end of next week.  I'm going to follow things a little more seriously in terms of the diet, and also kick up the exercise a notch - especially the cardio.  I think I'm planning on switching to level 3-4 earlier than I had planned.  Again, we'll see how it goes next week.
